half keyboard messed up

[coche]

hi guys

i'm currently having trouble with my keyboard, the right half of it has the keys all messed up (o is a 6, p a 7 etc etc).

at some point i thought it was the keyboard itself that was broken - my laptop is pretty destroyed - BUT it does allow me to log into the computer  which uses letters from those keys...which leads me to think it is a virus.

now, i've run ad-aware, panda online scan, symantec antivirus, and spy-sweeper and it hasnt found anything, i have also  updated the drivers for it and nothing. now im back to thinking it might be that the keyboard is just broken...

im just wondering if anyone has any ideas on this.
i greatly appreciate it

jose

I would need to take a closer look

Can you Download Hijackthis 1.99
A small utility to help identify if any Hijackers, Malware, Spyware, etc.....Reside on your computer

Important: Create a Permanent folder for Hijackthis
Double Click "MY Computer"
Open your C: drive
Click "File" >>> "New" >>>> "Folder"
A new folder will be created, name it HJT

Now you will have C:\HJT

Download Hijackthis from CLICK HERE or CLICK HERE
Save it to that new folder

Do a SCAN and Save a Log file---Save the log----copy and paste the WHOLE contents of the log  here... Don't try and fix anything yet----It is all important

I don't see anything wrong with your last log

I don't think it's viral related

You could try a Trial Version of TDS-3 and see if it catches anything
Download the trial version of tds-3 anti trojan from here:
http://www.diamondcs.com.au/tds/downloads/...s/tds3setup.exe
This is good for 30 days
Install it and Restart your computer when prompted
Don't run a scan yet

When your back in Windows it's important to update the latest RADIUS database
IMPORTANT>>>Right click the link below, select "save target as" or save link as
http://www.diamondcs.com.au/tds/radius.td3
Save it to the directory where you installed TDS-3
The default location should be
C:\Program Files\TDS3
Allow it to overwrite the previous radius.td3

Launch TDS-3. In the top bar of tds window click system testing> full systemscan.
Let it completely finish scanning---Even if it appears to freeze at times
Detections will appear in the lower pane of tds window after the scan is finished ( it'll take a while ) Right click the list> select save as txt.>> save this to a convienent location

After saving the scandump go ahead and right click the list of alarms again, this time select delete...only delete those with POSITIVE IDENTIFICATION

If anything found could you post the Scandump.txt
